NameScan Reviews & Product Details

Decent service, has potential if billing practices could be improved Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dupes and false positives are a problem.

Billing practices cause all credits to expire after only one year. They must make more from non-use than from active users Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how easy it is to find the sanctions regulations and how it helps in fulfilling Anti Money laundering requirements. The user interface (UI) is also very simple to understand, making it easier for businesses to navigate and utilize the platform efficiently Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

what i particularly dislike about Name Scan is that its accuracy depends on the quality of its databases and sources, which appears to be incomplete or outdated and leads to incorrect or incomplete results times. There is also a risk of false positives or negatives, which can result in errors or inefficiencies in the compliance process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

NameScan is a service that helps you to protect your company from risky business partners and to ensure compliance with international sanctions. I like the ability to quickly scan a list of potential business partners/individuals against OSINT data sources to check for any red flags. It is also very affordable, making it an indispensable tool for small businesses and startups. The best part is that it integrates directly with your existing systems, making it easy to keep your data up-to-date with the latest PEP and sanction lists Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the name scan for PEP/Sanctions is inaccurate and needs more work. I have had a few experiences where it wrongly identified people as being on sanctions lists when they were not. In some cases, it has even caused issues with business transactions because one of the parties was incorrectly identified as being on a sanctions list. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Name Scan is a quick search database for PEP Checks and Sanctions Screenings and to search for KYC/AML checks quickly. You can manually set up match rates in your search results with filtering of adverse media with other filters such as FATF Jurisdiction Risk and results from Google and Bing. I love its interface and how quickly one can understand to search on it. You can also enter a reference number for your search to help to get to it the next time you need it.

The search results are not that great compared to watchlists and sanctions lists such as Dow Jones, WorldCheck, WorldCompliance, and Accuity. The results provided consist of expired sources and are a problem in investigations. There are also some results not shown in the database which are easily identifiable through booleans on web platforms such as Google and Bing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how easy it is to perform a namescan check for PEP Checks and Sanction Screenings. All you need is a name with available filters such as DOB and web search for adverse media, Politically exposed person.

The sources provided in the results is a great help as you can then find other information which could have taken a lot of filtering out to result in seconds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It sometimes provides you with sources that are expired links and is not likely to be correct. It also does not give enough other identifiers to conduct the research further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
